I have narrowed problem down to two adjacent switches can not ping each
other over the trunk link and collected debug info as follows (note that
the ARP debug shows that CAT2 responded to ARP but CAT1 never received
the response. Also the trunk link between the two is f0/14 on both
sides, I verified the physical connection by shut/no shut on the
interface and watch the same interface go up and down on the other
switch):

Subject: RE: ICMP showing encapsulation failed

I checked the following items and they all seemed OK:

1. all trunk interfaces are "trunking" under "show int trun"
2. vlan 30 is configured on both CAT1 and CAT2
3. all used interfaces are "FWD" under "show span vlan 30"
4. all interfaces are full duplex and 100 mbps under "show interface"

I turned on "deb arp" on devices and noticed that:
1. when R4 is pinging CAT1, CAT1 does not see any ARP request
2. when CAT1 is pinging R4, R4 sees the ARP requests and responds, but
CAT1 does not see the response comes back

This seems that communication from R4 to CAT1 is blocked somehow. Any
suggestions?

I also put in a temporary vlan 30 interface on CAT2, R4 can ping CAT2,
R3 can be ping CAT1, but just not across the trunk link which seems to
be cause. But I don't know why this is happening...

Thanks in advance ....

I think you didn't get an arp resolution for the 172.16.34.4 address,
that's why the encapsulation failed because there is no L3 to L2
mapping.

The reason why there is no arp resolution could be a problem with your
trunk, is it up? Is vlan 30 defined on both switches? Is the spanning
tree working properly?

Another thing I wanted to point out, if you statically configure duplex
settings on one side and leave the other side on auto then the auto side
will fall back to default half-duplex. Statically configuring duplex
settings switches off the auto negotiation. So either both sides on auto
or both statically configured.
